Summary-
Having to worry about where your next meal will come from or even if you will eat today is the worst feeling in the world. I don’t believe anybody should have to go hungry or starve to death. There are plenty of ways to stop America from starving. Think of all the children who are stuck in “food insecurities” and “food desserts” because companies don’t want to take fresh produce to the smaller cities. I believe we can stop this by starting with the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program first. This program need many changes such as increasing the amount of benefits, lowering the eligibility requirements. There are millions of people who need help and by changing the standards of SNAP can help many families who are in need.
